DrugCam(®) is a new approach to control the chemotherapy preparations with an intelligent video system that enables automatic verification during the critical stages of preparations combined with an a posteriori control with partial or total visualization of the video recording of preparations. The assessment was about the recognizing of anticancer drug vials (qualitative analysis) and syringe volumes (quantitative analysis). The qualitative analysis was conducted for a total of 120 vials with sensitivity of 100% for 84.

Method: A survey carried out in six hospital pharmacies of the Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP) hospitals, with important activity in oncology, listed the stability data used locally by each site. The final goal is to reach a consensus for the stability of cytotoxic drugs, which was the result of an original collaboration between the pharmacists of the compounding unit and the quality control unit.
